The Regent Grand Hotel in Bordeaux has just received two awards, the first for its décor and the second for its cuisine.
Food first : chef Pascal Nibaudeau has received 3 hats from Gault & Millau 2010 for the Pressoir d’Argent, their top restaurant, and despite what you might think it doesn’t cost a fortune to eat there. With the recent change in the VAT rate for restaurants the menu now starts at 34 instead of 39 Euros.
The Regent was also in the top 5 nominations for the ‘Prix Villégiature’ for the best Hotel Architecture – which as you can see from the photo is fabulous, especially when all lit up at night.
